Orange Seal - Endurance Formula Tubeless Bike Tire Sealant | Long Lasting, Fast Sealing | for MTB, Road, CX and Gravel Bicycle Tires

Love this product, I’ve used it for years. Made this purchase of the smaller bottle specifically to get the included injector. Arrived without injector. Returning it.

Ive had this injected for close to a month now, and so far its worked perfectly. I initially put the same amount of sealant on both my Minions, but it seemed that my rear tire was leaking a tiny bit of air over the course of 4 days (ridden once), so I ended up putting in an additional 1.25 oz, which seems to have done the trick. Using this Along with the KOM sealant injector worked really well on the tubeless stems I purchased. Had no issues with clunks getting stuck in. Some people complain about a smell in other agents. Didnt notice anything with this, but I didnt go out of my way to smell it either. I havent noticed any punctures yet (hopefully I can just avoid those altogether) but Ill update my review in the future for anything I notice.

Works great. Just installed my first tubeless tires. No leaks and they hold air. EDIT: A couple of months down the road, had my first experience with a cut in a tubeless tire. On an urban ride with my gravel bike and felt the tire getting spongy. Started to get worried when I added air but the tire continued to leak (could hear the leak). But, in about a minute or less, the sealant sealed the leak and I was able to continue the ride. I have since ridden a very rough 55 mile gravel ride and the tire is still holding air. Great stuff. 2nd Edit: That tire with the cut... I was able to ride it until the tire wore out. The sealed area was never an issue through several thousand additional miles. Talk about being confident. Note: I just add a bit every couple of months rather than clean and refill since I will wear a rear tire out in one season.

This product is flawless. It works like charm, i ran over a cactus going down hill and tires held and sealed right back up. This sealant also works for a long time so ur not buying a new one over and over. This sealant only down side is if you don’t ride often like 1-2 a month it drys up and doesn’t give you the protection I usually would.

Sealed the multiple pin hole leaks in the side walls of my Vittoria 29er tires. Stan just wouldnt do the trick.

I ride about 6k miles annually. I’ve been using tubeless tires since about 2000, back when tubeless tires didn’t really exist, and all there was for sealant was Stan’s. Orange seal is my favorite lately. With good tubeless tape (I love muc off) and if you replace it about every 6 months, you’ll be done with flats unless you regularly smack rocks with your rims.

Did not contain the filler attachment as shown in the pictures

I used Stans, prior to finding Orange Seal, and now I use Orange Seal exclusively. Ive confidently ridden Utah running Orange Seal and have also ridden—and walked—Colorado on a rental wishing I had Orange Seal (and not Stans). No puncture is the same, but Ive ridden back to the trailhead after simple punctures (you barely notice until after the ride), and even torn knobs (more noticeable, like spew-sealant-noticeable—employed a plug along with OS sealant). I even rode out a bent rim after rubbing dirt into the void with OS drying shut in the gap (see picture), though had to keep pumping intermittently because the rim was out of shape. For normal punctures, OS is quick and effective. What I like BEST about Orange Seal is the bond at the bead which is so solid, it makes re-inflation simple; I find that invaluable on the trail. I dont get that sort of confidence with Stans. TIPS: For new rubber, add a bit more than the recommendation. It forms a film over the entirety/interior of the new tire. That said, the key to tubeless sealant is actually having enough sealant IN the tire for a puncture. Shake well and add via an open tire or stem. (They make a tube injector that works great.) Shaking is also key because Orange Seal does have solids that work in conjunction with the liquid.

Lets be honest here, the average cyclist is often lured into believing claimed benefits of a product without ever witnessing any valid tests to back the claims up. Youll hear all kinds of anecdotal claims of how great tubeless tires are, but you rarely hear about the many drawbacks - and the fact that you probably are a lot better off just sticking with good old tire tubes. Most common tubeless benefits cited (parroted): * Run at low pressures without going flat This is primarily something that people who ride off-road claim as a benefit, that by going tubeless you can drop the tire pressure lower than you could with a tube to get more grip on loose/uneven surfaces...whereas if you were using tubes youd be dealing with pinch flats once dropping below a certain threshold. False - properly installed tubes will not pinch flat even at lower pressures, and tubeless tires suffer from burping where the bead breaks momentarily allowing a lot of air to escape. The benefits of super low PSI are also dubious at best. * Never any flats This has nothing to do with tubeless and everything to do with the liquid sealant that you have to use as a stopgap to make tubeless work in the first place. Because spoked wheels are inherently not air-tight, for tubeless to work, a seal must be created. This is done by taping over the spoke holes and using the sealant to form a bead between the tire and rim. You chould just as easily add this sealant to a tubed tire if avoiding flats is your main concern. * Faster ride / better handling Totally subjective claims that really dont have any basis in reality. A good rider will do just as well with tubed tires as he would would tubeless. In many cases the sealant ends up being heavier than a decent tube, plus having liquid in your tires does not lend itself to better performance or handling. Orange Seal ----------------------------- So what is the problem with this orange stuff? First of all, it is poorly packaged. The bottle arrived partially empty because it leaked out. The seller puts them in zip-lock bags to prevent the leaky bottles from making a mess in transit, but youre still out a couple oz when it arrives. Next, this stuff is very watery and does not aid in forming a bead with tires that are not at least tubless ready. I have inferno 27 rims and tires that are tubless ready, but this stuff could not seal the minor gaps. As soon as the air hose was disconnected the tire would deflate. Third, see above, tubeless is largely a meme bandwagon that offers little or no benefits and only adds cost. - Tubes are cheap and can last for years. - Tubes hold air better and will not need to be inflated every single time you go for a ride. - Tubes, when properly installed, will not pinch flat. - Tubes can also be filled with a small amount of sealant to provide anti-flat protection, if that is a concern for you. - Tubes do not suffer from burping. - Tubes do not require an air compressor or charge pump to install. - Even if you go tubeless, if something causes your tire to go flat, you will need a tube to ride home. The cycling industry preys upon fools by trying to make bicycling depend upon expensive consumables that need frequent maintenance. Just stop.

The best sealant out there for hotter areas and fine enough to seal sidewalls unlike Stans which seep. Doesn’t dry out as quickly. If you ride in colder weather, you might be better off with the standard formula.
